JOHN HORNER “Little John” Popular John hails from Lysander; and, from the way he talks, weve begun to believe it’s truly a heaven on earth. Honesty and personality easily identify him as one of the finest Seniors. HELEN HOTCHKISS “Helen” Here is the little prescription for people who feel downcast about something. One smile and a few minutes of conversation with Helen is a guaranteed cure for any trouble. KATHERINE JENSEN “Katherine” “Champion Breadmaker of the Class of ’53.” This title has been awarded to her as a result of hard work in both 4-H and Grange. Her aspiration is a nursing career. ORLANDO HOUGHTALING “Oley” Oley, one of our most athletic Seniors has spent most of his time indulging in sports. Say, girls, have you ever noticed those legs? “Paula” rates that sec- glamour girl, respect for good in MARION KIGGINS “Dutch” One of the supporters of F.H.A., Marion has been among us now for two years and has made an impression on teachers and stu- dents alike. SHIRLEY KING “Shirley” Never too busy to help you out, Shirley has been a welcome member of the Class or ’53. She has decided opinions on local politics. NANCY KISSELSTEIN “Nancy” Here is our cutest Senior girl, who, with that ever-ready smile, will have no trouble in any of her future undertakings. Remember the part she played in adding to the turmoil of Room 4.

NORMA GREENE ‘Normie’ If you should want to see an example of a good disposition, just take a gander in this gal's direction. Normie is quite a cook too. SHIRLEY GREGORY “Greg” One of Miss Kinney’s brighter hopes in the fields of Silence and Secretarial Practice, Shir- ley is a quiet Senior. What happens when she leaves is known only to herself and her friends. NELSON WARD HALL, Jr. “Ward” A newcomer, it did not take long for this smiling lad to get acquainted. Ask anybody who has happened to be on the opposing panel to him in one of those citizenship de- bates. MARY HANLEY “Mair” Our Mary is always surrounded by wild shouts as she tears off to bother some poor soul. What would school be like without this attractive ball of fire to keep things stirred up? MARGARET HIGGINS “Margie” Our little Margie—. She not only has done well in school work, but she has been out- standing in sports, too. Her main interest drives a blue Plymouth. DONAL HIRSH “Harvey” Another one of the Belgium boys. Need I say more? Harveys ability to escape from his homeroom is remarkable, and a little gray Plymouth is his trademark. WILLIAM HIRSH “Chill” One of the three iron men of the school’s athletic teams, “Chill” had much to do with winning the Football and Basketball Cham- pionships. You can also see him doing the hundred yard dash up Artillery Lane. SHIRLEY HOLMES “Shirley” Room 4 wouldn’t be the same without Shir- ley. Her bowling achievements fill us with envy, and although she never enters politics, she will always be a “Dewey” fan.

NORMA LAMB “Norm Feeling blue? Acquaint yourself with Norm's terrific sense of humor at frequent intervals and your blues will be pushed away. One of Alpha Mu's mainstays. PATRICIA LAMSON Par When Pat arrives, the fun begins. Her ready wit and pleasant manner have made her an indispensable member of our class. PEARL LISTER “Pearr Pearl is a little gem, as her name implies. She’s one of the reasons why the Drum and Bugle Corps look so snappy, and her lively manner makes things hum. ROBERT LORY “Bob What’s the matter, don’t you have a ride? Bob would give you one if he could fit you in. Most of this big-hearted guy's time is taken up by being at the helm of Gamma Sig. ANN LOWERY Annie What is going on in that little mind of Annie’s? You can not tell what she is about to add to the events that Seniors dream up in Room 1. Maybe she is going to give us a solo on that flute. joan McCarthy ‘Joan Toan is one of our most active Senior girls. Wherever there is a job to be done, you can bet she is right in the midst of it. Maybe that is why her activities attract so much at- tention. edward McDermott Mac Who will ever forget Ed for his game-sav- ing tackles in the Solvay classic? One of the hard workers in the class, he is sure to go a long way. SUSAN McDERMOTT Sue Sue is one of those “quiet” Seniors from Room 4. When Sue is there, plan to spend an entire day of surprises.
